Let's get it started. Quick question for Blazer fans. Any chance you guys will lend AJ Erdely back to us for one more game?

Brent Stockstill did not not dress against FIU. He started throwing last week and had he dressed I would have taken that as a sign he is playing in Birmingham. Sounds like it didn't go as well as the coaches and medical team would have liked. We shall see how he progresses this week. I would guess it's literally a 50/50 proposition at this point of whether he plays.

Richie James did dress Saturday but did not play. It looks like he should return this week. We got a few guys back against FIU, so hopefully we are turning the corner on the injury front. Tony Franklin simplified the offense for Urzua and he did not throw an interception for the first time in his career. Baby steps. Still AJ should have stuck around!

I believe this is a very important game for MT (as I'm sure it is for UAB). This probably looked like a penciled in win for many before the season, but I believe y'all have likely disavowed everyone of that notion now. Good to have you guys back and look forward to what I expect will be a difficult and physical game Saturday.

"Lightning!" Long time, man! No to your first question! A.J. is ours, and we be keeping him! I know that Blue Raider Nation is coming to Birmingham in heavy numbers, yourself best be among them! I feel compelled to give you and your well traveled fan base a heads up about driving from the Murfreesboro/Nashville area to Birmingham. Get there as early as you possibly can because of heavy road construction on the I-65/I-20 interchange in the heart of Birmingham a couple of miles or so from Legion Field, bka around here as "Malfunction Junction". trust me on this, the legend is true! Whatever the circumstances, just get there and back safely. Look forward to ya'lls "visit"...
